LLED 5630/7630 - ESOL Methods P-12

What are ESL and EFL? What are their similarities and differences? What do ESL and EFL teachers learn from each other when working together? As part of this course we will read about and discuss the foundations of second language teaching and learning, curriculum and materials design, and methods of teaching non-native speakers of English in P-12 rural and urban settings. Students in this course will gain first-hand experience developing and implementing an English Camp in a rural setting as well as working in urban schools alongside experienced EFL teachers. As part of the program, participants will also have the opportunity to work with GA ESL teachers. There are no pre-requisites for this course.
